[Today for you, tomorrow for me]: 256.Poetry.One Prayer for Redemption
Rating: 0.00
I feel the exhaustion
Surround my body
Surround my mind
Surround my soul
As I feel the life
Draining from my veins
In smudges of crimson
Hoping for peace
Signing my name,
In the red that is on my finger
Leaving a big, scarlet
I’m sorry
At the end
I’m sorry sister,
I’m sorry lover,
I’m sorry friend
May you not be unhappy
Because of my cowardice
Like a long lost friend
And I look back
At all that I’ve left
And the mess I’ve made
With my departure
Except her
The one that always did
I see her kneeling
By this box that encloses my body
At my cold side
Who prays for my serenity
Who prays that
I have found what I’m looking for
Who prays for the redemption
I never received in life
